Simon & Garfunkel -The Graduate
when there are certain titles in a soundtrack, well, maximum score more
Giorgio Gaber -Anche per oggi non si vola
My education.
Years spent in technical school drawing with Gaber in the background, La strada, La peste, Buttare lì qualcosa, etc.
How much I loved it.
In 1981, I saw him perform live. Since then, he has become a belief for me.
Now he is praised by the right, the left, etc. I hope that wherever he is, if he exists, it’s far away from our messes. more
Gang -L'età del pane (dall'esilio al ritorno). Trilogia italiana
What’s further to the left in Italy?
Consistent and fighters. Of course, there’s also the collaboration with Bubola, the prezzomolo of committed Italian singer-songwriters.
From Clash clones to successful artists in their own right. Long live the Severini brothers! more
Fabrizio De André -1991 Concerti
De Andrè at the peak of his maturity and confidence on stage! more
Mystery Jets
Sweet sentimental pop rock, very well composed, really talented. more
Matteo salvini
The best politician of the last 70 years!!! Not like certain treacherous leftist traitors!!! more
Joe Jackson -Fast Forward
The latest excellent work of the "minstrel with sad eyes."
The Englishman Joe Jackson, transplanted to New York and then to Berlin.
Album divided into 4 sides and recorded in 4 different cities with 4 different bands.
Side 1: New York
Side 2: Amsterdam
Side 3: Berlin
Side 4: New Orleans more
Mike Bongiorno
I really admired him when he put that inflated balloon Vittorio Sgarbi in his place. Otherwise, he was good and professional, even if he occasionally fell into some nonsense (with Vasco Rossi "you know that Vasco Rossi's albums are all recorded live?") more
Gialappa's Band
It is undoubtedly true that after so many years of activity, they can get a bit tiring, yet they remain brilliant and why not, innovative as well. Some sketches from their shows (e.g. "Sensualità a corte") are pure genius. more
Maurizio Nichetti
Smart and nice. more
Pink Floyd
There's not much to define. Always taken in small doses because at times I find them cold or stingy with emotions. Every now and then I take a bike ride with a cigar without fears. more
Yngwie J. Malmsteen -Eclipse
The last true masterpiece of Malmsteen, then up until War To End All Wars albums that are more than good/excellent, after the total abyss. Eclipse, while winking at more commercial sounds, has a perfect production and tracks like Making Love, Motherless Child, Judas, Devil In Disguise, or the beautiful Titletrack making their mark.
Personal note: If Jeff Scott Soto had been behind the microphone, it might have been an even better album. more
The Who -Who's Next
The best n.a.s. rock album? (not otherwise specified) more
Pink Floyd
They were better with Barret. more
Jalisse
Everything was fine, after which Drusian was as good as gold. more
Fall Out Boy -Infinity on High
great for the shower! more
Sonic Youth -Daydream Nation
The work of "great" success and full maturity, a lengthy album bolstered by a wealth of ideas and inspiration. It has always given me the feeling of a hybrid between a youthful generational anthem and a sort of "Post-Apocalyptic Sci-Fi" concept, oscillating between melancholy and bursts of grit/anger. It’s not my absolute favorite from Sonica Gioventude (I remain particularly attached to those more rooted in the New York underground scene, Branca, and No-Wave), but it surely closes their golden decade remarkably, where (in addition to the EPs) they produced five stunning albums one after the other. In the '90s, they will create wonderful things, but no longer at such levels. This album also has an extraordinary atmosphere (see "Providence"). If I have to mention a few tracks, the favorites are "'Cross the Breeze," "Trilogy," and "The Sprawl," amid a wealth of overall quality. more
Krzysztof Komeda
Died while playing. How it would please many. more
